Don't be so strict neumannsalva, the skirt looks nice on you :) The color fits well!
Many patterns I like don't fit to my body. I adjust a pattern over few times and I get a perfect one. So keep on searching new patterns and keep on adjusting the one you like! I have to adjust my wide pant I made recently (I got to know it's too wide :D).
